Matthews, who recorded his 11th career 100-yard receiving game, finished with 178 yards on 10 catches.

But it didn't come without a price.

"Early on in the third quarter I started experiencing cramps," Matthews told The Tennessean. "First in my legs, then it got up to my back and my arms so it was close to a full-body cramp."

According to the report, he took IV fluids and returned to the game.

"I got hit making a catch on a great throw by Austyn (Carta-Samuels)," Matthews said. "I had a lot of fluids in my stomach from rehydrating and everything, so I probably regurgitated a lot of that and threw up a little bit. But I was able to stay in the game.

"It was tough, but I knew I couldn't come out because my team needed me."

The highlights for Matthews included a 55-yard, first-half score on a screen. He also added a 42-yard catch and run on fourth-and-18 after he threw up to set up a score.

It wasn't enough as Cody Prewitt intercepted a pass off Matthews' hands with 26 seconds left to preserve the Ole Miss win.
